Title: Blackdogs and my weekend living room rig
Post by: hunter on September 09, 2006, 05:27:21 PM: Haha, that is fun. My GF is not there at the weekend and I feel like a kid whose parents are on vacation...

Now I set up my weekend living room rig Epiphone x 2, TRex and MI Audio,
clip was just done with laptopmic, so not very good, but you get the idea :)

Consider taking this to next band practice now :D

Oh and what patch leads are they? I need to upgrade mine sometime.

Sure thing the Crunch Box, this thing ROCKS!

The leads are George Ls, quite handy as they are light and thin and can easily be adjusted. But I like the sound not so much when they are in the bypass, so usually I patch all FX with them but have a looper switcher to get around them ...

the lead bits definately arent suffering from the problem im having with the H&K... hmmm Crunch Box could be something to look into.

even with the now so good quality and the natural reverb of the ambient, we can see/hear the pickups
it has a rebelious suond, kinda plexi sound to it.. it roars but still sings.
roars in the bass and mids, and sings on the highs
am i right?

Post by: _tom_ on September 11, 2006, 01:48:36 PM: Weird. I found this clip on the Orange Amps forum, with the CB sounding horrible and thin :o http://www.orange-amps.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=7779

Now not so sure whether to get one or not :lol:

I'm also not sure whether you should get one _Tom_ 8)

What are you doing on that forum anyways?
And then I think this clip sounds quite good, better than mine I find.

And anyway, that guy probably doesn't have no BKPs, so cannot be a proper impression anyway...

Post by: gingataff on September 11, 2006, 04:54:18 PM: Hunter, is the crunch box really EUR99????
Over here it's ¥25000 which is about EUR170 or GBP120....
I think I'll wait till I'm back in the UK :?
Title: Blackdogs and my weekend living room rig
Post by: _tom_ on September 11, 2006, 07:29:44 PM: Yeah if you convert the price to UK its only about £56+postage.

Post by: downfader on September 12, 2006, 09:34:42 PM: Luvly stuff! :P I quite like Epi's and the way they feel in your hands, they get a lot of bad press but I've never had a problem with my SG. :lol:

As for Orange amps - great - if you buy the valve amp head and 2x12 cabs :wink: Not so great if you're using the Orange Crush range :lol:
